PARK, HYEJUN (GRADUATED KOREA UNIVERSITY, CURRENTLY BRM)

"Looking back, CEO challenge was a chance for me to get to know and assess P&G as my employer, as well as secure my first career out of college at P&G. Throughout the competition (from the case brief, to business planning, and to review/feedback sessions) I experienced a glimpse of the world-famous P&G Brand Building planning. I was able to experience what I would be doing in P&G as an Assistant Brand Manager. It also provided me with a very precious & rare chance to interact with P&Gers - to hear what they appreciate most about the company, what it takes to become a P&Ger, etc. The CEO Challenge was the most real & live assessment of the company which I was considering to start a career at."

KIM, YONGWOO (GRADUATED SOGANG UNIVERSITY, CURRENTLY BRM)

"P&G CEO Challenge was a great opportunity for me to learn how P&Gers solve problems by having a chance of cracking real business case challenges. The thing that I value the most of the P&G CEO challenge is that you can get “real feedback” on your output from P&Gers who are the best experts in the world. You can also have office tours and conversations with current employees which gives you a glimpse of how world-class brand builders work and bring brands to life. Don't hesitate to apply the P&G CEO challenge - it's a once-in-a-life time opportunity to grow your business skills further AND secure your future job."
